  1. Conference Realignment

    The Big 10 would get several TV marketplaces if they merged with ACC - https://www.stationindex.com/tv/tv-markets. Based on this list, you picked up 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, 9th (though MD already helps this), 13th, 16th, 19th, 23rd, 24th, 27th, 30th. 5 of top 10, 8 of top 20 and 12 of top 30...
  2. Conference Realignment

    But listening, why would yhe ACC schools getting 30 to 40 pct agree with this? That would keep their revenue at the current level for several more years. Now if they upped the ante to 60 to 70 pct it might be sellable. ESPN might consider since that would bring in NC, VA, DC, Boston...
  3. Conference Realignment

    OK this was before integration of athletes in the South. It was also when players generally didn't go or care about the NFL and were true student athletes. Slightly different model today
  4. Conference Realignment

    The NFL has those rules because it is a huge advantage for them to have Colleges develop players at the college's expense. The NFL is already the richest and most profitable pro league and this arrangement just magnfies that advantage. Also physical development to be big enough to be in the NFL...
  5. Brand New Transfer Season NIL talk

    I get waiting on opening the portal in theory. But the big problem is the majority of transfers want to be in their new school in January to give them the ability to go through Spring Practice. That gives them the best chance to start the following Fall. If not for that, I would be for one...
  6. ACC Bowl Action

    Makes you wonder what happens to all of the Pac 12 bowl tie-ins. They had 7 bowl tie ins and 2 were against the ACC (San Diego Holiday Bowl and Sun Bowl). With only 2 teams in the Pac 12 in 2024, obviously this has to change. With all of the teams moving to new conferences in 2024, assume there...
  7. Potential DC for Next Year

    After listening the hour plus Q&A, it seems highly likely we will get a new DC. From a players perspective, graduates probably don't want to go through a new coach and potential scheme change. Freshmen were recruited by coaches that are highly likely not to be here next year. The risky part...
  8. Conference Realignment

    Teams will not want to cutback games since they would lose too much revenue. Same problem as pro sports. But it could be a lot of games for seeds 5 thru 12. It could be 12 regular season, 1 possibly for conference championship and up to 4 for playoffs. That becomes a 17 game schedule.
  9. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    Just out of curiosity, how many 2023 starters are in the transfer portal? Obviously depth is hurt when you have a lot of transfers so regardless transfer do have an impact. It will be really interesting to see how many more inbound transfers we get in the next 5 months particularly in the...
  10. O line 💗

    PJ was absolutely brilliant taking average talent and making them elite based on his scheme and knowledge of how to make it go. The problem is the defense had average talent and no real scheme advantage. So the way we won was to score on most possessions and limit the number of possessions. It...
  11. ACC Bowl Action

    Well I would at least like for the ACC to have a winning records in bowls. BC win makes the ACC 4-3. Not sure how the rest will play out but I think at least Clemson is in a strong position to win. FSU to me has very little chance. The other 2 are more wildcards.
  12. Building an Offensive Line

    I think it is interesting that the 2nd half of this season improved out outcome (excluding Clemson) by pounding the ball. We had a spread offense but leverage our runners. If you look at many of the national championship teams (particularly UGA and Alabama), running is an integral part of their...
  13. What is the greatest game ever played at BDS at Grant/Hyundai Field?

    The 51-48 win in 99 was special. First of all it is the last home win we have had against UGA. But the second and most important reason is the fumble at the goal line at the end of regulation. I was (and am) a Season Ticket holder and took Marta that day. The fumble being called and feeling...
  14. Conference Realignment

    I think this fight becomes like the PGA and LIV. At some point, disruption and cost provides more aggravation than either side wants. However the big risk in this fight is whatever concessions are given to FSU will quickly be followed by several other ACC teams. I think the ACC will fight...
  15. Building an Offensive Line

    Interesting enough is I think PJ inherited an even better DL. Gailey could recognize talent just couldn't maximize it. Four Georgia Tech players were selected Sunday in the 2009 NFL draft. Defensive end Michael Johnson was taken in the third round by the Cincinnati Bengals, offensive tackle...
  16. Potential DC for Next Year

    yes but that doesn't mean the interim coach can't be moved to permanent DC. Since Key brought in the co DC this year, not sure he is going to replace him after 1 year. Also money will have some impact on our ability to hire an existing DC
  17. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    But high school players on dline are less likely to be ready than even a freshman who has been prscticing even if they are not playing
  18. Transfer Portal: Who do we need to target this offseason?

    looking at on3, thst is 7 defensive lineman transferring out. That is beyond terrible particularly with only 1 transfer in. Down 6 is a huge problem.
  19. Interest in a post realignment world

    I think the Big 12 would take us though most are not in favor. The SEC owns Georgia and plays their championship here. The only reason the SEC to consider would be to keep the Big Ten out of the Atlanta market. I think that is a long shot. Going to the Big Ten is a possibility but that would...
